I'll start with #Russia's losses on the battlefield (as estimated by #Ukraine)
Numbers still well done on peaks. A number of factors: awful weather, and highly likely the invaders are short on cattle/soldiers and ammo meaning fewer attacks across the frontline.

The death of another American soldier has been confirmed in #Ukraine.
28-year-old Afghanistan veteran Andrew Peters from #Wisconsin died 10 days ago while helping Ukraine defend its territory. Andrew was part of the International Defence Legion.

Each day #Ukraine releases figures for the numbers of Russian soldiers killed and equipment destroyed.
Invariably it's lower at weekends. So today's numbers (covering Saturday's losses) are lower across the board. I'm wondering if a couple of units don't report at weekends?

Hello and welcome to day 349 of #Russia's war of choice.
#Ukraine still defends valiantly, but the west's tardiness to act has placed them under severe pressure for the next 6 weeks until trained troops return with some new toys.

Too late. I don’t care what you do. It’s been nearly year since we found r@ped 4 year old girl blindfolded and laying dead on top of her also r@ped mother in #Bucha. It’s been nearly year since we see child after child with similar trauma across country,
Those #Bucha girls held in basement for month and made pregnant, those #Irpin girls found in mass graves with multiple DNA in them. #Izium, torture chambers for children in #Kherson, #Mariupol people all gone,
Disappeared and stolen children. Mass graves. 21 concentration camps, executions, mass murder, freezing, starvation, trauma. We are suffering for year.
And you decide that #Dnipro was worth flowers? Take your flowers to hell with you. I don’t forgive you. No one does.

In complete contrast to yesterday there is very little news to report.
This in itself has to be good news with not a single report of missiles or shelling so far and it's almost 6am in #Ukraine.

The @UN stands accused of "yielding to #Russia's threats" for not investigating #Iran's role in the drone attacks which are causing the civilian population unimaginable suffering

As always, a quick link for yesterday's thread in case you missed anything, such as the #USA naming the #Wagner group and another rebellion among #Russia's newly mobilised (cannon fodder)
I estimated 100,000 Russian soldiers would be killed shortly after the "western"/Catholic Christmas. Now it looks like it will happen just before then as high losses continue for #Russia
As well as another 500+ killed, an uptick in drone hits and a helicopter brought down.

So today's the biggest attack by #Russia for weeks.
More missiles are flying around #Ukraine right now - but it's becoming noticeable that air defence is getting better.
17 cruise missiles were fired from aircraft and 16 Kalibr missiles were launched from the Black Sea fleet.

Watching Vladimir Putin speak on Friday about his sham annexations of #Ukrainian territory as Russia’s “great liberation mission,” my colleague, @yuliagorbunova_, recalled a woman from occupied Kherson, whom she interviewed some weeks ago…
🧵
🧵
Russia’s security agents had detained her entire family and interrogated her for hours with a plastic bag over her head.
All the while, she could hear her husband being beaten in the next room.

“They kept asking me, ‘Are you a fascist?’ I told them that I was Ukrainian.”
“They said: ‘There is no such people. We are one people.’”

Russians created the cult of their own pain and suffering and want everyone to worship it.
It’s glamorous. Marketable. “Ovsyannikova” with an edge. It’s more shareable than #Olenivka or #Izium. Makes a good view and a catchy headline. For pinterest-vaporwave-bubbletea-aesthetics appreciators - this is *the* fight.
Not the murdered heroes or excavations of mass graves.

You won’t find retweets of this ℹ️ by 250k-followers-progressive people-lovers who ask to share coordinates of Ukrainian defenders they deem “unworthy👎” based on Russian propaganda and don’t know how they should feel about Russians being given old rifles to kill Ukrainians.
Sunday 25 September, Day 214 of #Russia's war of choice. Imagine a leader choosing to send over 50,000 of his countrymen to death and calling up another million, against a peaceful nation which never fired on, nor invaded anyone!

⚡️#Russia's soldiers sexually assaulted a 4 year old child.
⚡️🇷🇺embassy in Canada firebombed
⚡️Big (suspicious) fire in 🇷🇺 city
⚡️Employees forced to "donate" over 40% of their weekly wage to Russia's war

How about booking a New Year's Eve party at the #Kerch (Crimea) bridge?
New cruises being launched from next week.
Well, guess they like fireworks on 31 December. Why not try a #HIMARS light show experience?

Fewer stories on Sunday than for a long time, which is a relief as that usually means fewer civilian deaths in #Ukraine.
But there was still plenty to write about - if you missed anything, scroll through yesterday's thread with this link:

Hi new followers! Since u followed me after #APSA2022 where @kath_stoner, @darelasn, Olena Nikolayenko & I disputed Mearsheimer’s claim that NATO expansion made Putin 2 attack 🇺🇦, I put together🧵summarizing my comments. Thx @PopovaProf & @dandrezner 4 live-tweeting panel! 1/21
My broader argument was that accurate analysis of the war needs to take seriously 2 things not taken seriously by great power politics realist analysis: 1) dynamics of domestic politics in 🇷🇺 & 🇺🇦, especially identity politics, and b) Ukrainian agency. 2/21
JM claim that NATO expansion provoked🇷🇺 2 invade 🇺🇦 & that Putin has no intent 2 destroy 🇺🇦 sovereign statehood is wrong. As theoretical approach it denies agency even 2🇷🇺 (it had no choice but 2 lash out, while NATO did), while 🇺🇦 is but a pawn of great powers. Also 3/21

With fog of war settling down, and dozens of new losses being discovered daily as an aftermath of #Ukraine️'s counter-offensive in #KharkivOblast, we thought maybe it's time to stop for a moment and look back at what's been done 🧵
A lot, apparently. #Russia seems to have sustained unprecedented material losses. Total 533 lost units since Sep 6th to be precise: ukr.warspotting.net/search/?bellig… and counting. That's #Bilohorivka on steroids kind of things.
Out of those 533, total 137 have been found destroyed: ukr.warspotting.net/search/?bellig… It's important to acknowledge a lot of these have been lost much earlier when #Russia was taking over the area, and only discovered these days. Some of them known losses.
